Another Friday Fast 5 coming your way.?
Have you ever struggled to know how to lead your team? Or maybe you aren’t sure whether you could be doing a better job?
Below are 5 lessons about self-leadership I recommend, which I hope will inspire you to embrace this practice so you can become a better leader for your team.
- Own the day. Taking charge of your morning routine - no matter what time you wake up - is essential for a powerful and successful day ahead. Rise to challenge with resolve, make that bed, get some fresh air in those lungs, take control and feel the flow!
- Prioritise yourself. Self-care isn't just a buzzword — it's an essential! We so often focus on the urgent, like deadlines and projects, but don't forget to make time for activities that nourish your heart, soul and spirit. Put yourself at the top of your priority list: you won’t regret it!
- Find inspiration. Struggling to come up with your next big idea? Try stepping out of the box by getting outside and having a little fun! Take yourself on an evening stroll, bike ride at the beach or tour an art gallery - you never know who could spark that moment of genius. By creating some “white space” in your day-to-day routine, you'll be sure to open up more creative doors for yourself!
- Focus on your future vision. Design your current behaviours and routines to match the future vision of yourself. Think about what you want to achieve in 2 -5 years (what type of person would you need to be, to have that life / success?) and start implementing the habits future-you would have. This idea was inspired by the book Atomic Habits.?
- Make one small change. Remember that you don’t always need to make massive changes to make a difference. Rather than trying to go from A to Z, which can be difficult and unsustainable, incremental steps also stay with you well after a challenge is over. So what is one small change that you could make to improve yourself today?
Keep an eye out for another fast 5 next week!

1 年Jade Green. Right on the mark! "To truly be a leader that inspires others and has a productive team, then you need to learn to lead yourself first". Leadership is about stepping up and owning non-engagement. Stop blaming others.
